Do I always need to buy insurance
when I rent a car?

Am I not covered by my own policy?

If you have fully insured your own vehicle, including collision and comprehensive coverage, and rent a vehicle for pleasure only (while on vacation, for example), you may not need to buy extra insurance from the rental company.  In most states, your basic rental fee by law will include liability coverage for damage or injury to others.  But different rules apply when you rent a car for business purposes, so check with your agent for details.

I don't have my own insurance, can I still rent a car?
